|
|
Get a sense of the magnitude of loss suffered in the wake of the destruction by Hurricane Katrina
| Overview | |
|
Hear an eyewitness account of the hardships suffered by the people of New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina’s destruction. The tour offers a glimpse of the days preceding Hurricane Katrina and the levee that was ‘breached’ after it hit the city, displacing so many residents of New Orleans. Discover the history of the city and its French Quarter, and learn of the connection between America‘s disappearing coastal wetlands, oil and gas pipelines, levee protection and hurricane destruction. The enormous loss of lives and property caused by this Hurricane Katrina, also called ‘America’s Worst Catastrophe’, will be clear after this tour in New Orleans.You’ll be amazed at the volume and variety of products "offloaded" in the multimodal port of New Orleans, the second largest port in the country. After this tour, you’ll have a better understanding of events pre and post Katrina and the "Rebirth of New Orleans."
